For Christmas of 2007 my parents gave us a gift certificate to the Hallmark Resort in Newport. With our weekends and free time in 2008 being occupied with house building, it took us almost a year for us to redeem our gift! It was well worth the wait, though, and we decided to take the kids with us so we could enjoy time as a family away from our projects. We were only there for two days, but it felt a lot longer than that. The hotel was right on the beach and also had an indoor pool...it was great! We were prepared for it to be cold and windy, but we lucked out and had really gorgeous weather! The first evening we bundled up and went for a walk on the beach. It was a little chilly, but not windy at all, so that was nice. We took a lot of pictures during our stay, so I'll try to break things up and hopefully not overdo it!
Here's the view of the resort from the beach.

So happy to be on "vacation"!

Such a pretty sky!
After walking on the beach we went swimming and then to our hotel room to relax. We made popcorn and watched movies...and although the four of us are not used to sleeping in the same room, everyone managed to fall asleep quickly and sleep all night. We tried to have the boys share a bed, but Griffin ended up in the pack n' play because he was too wiggly. (:

Looks like you had a great time. That picture of Josh walking with the boys & the pretty sky needs to be framed. :)
